2022 NFL Offseason thread

Story out today for PIT is that they struggled to find an OL coach willing to work with their OC (Matt Canada).  The last guy, who was probably going to be fired, left before the end of the year to basically go recruit for Oregon.  The guy they were going to give the job to immediately jumped ship to Chicago to coach OL before PIT could even give him an offer.

Tomlin is about to run that team into the ground.

The guy they did hire is a local here (Girard). Interestingly enough, Tomlin now has four "Youngstown" guys on staff. 

Lol, Rex Grossman played in a SB.

Think I’ve seen more of Matthew Stafford’s wife this week than some of the players.

Me too.

This is not a complaint

Outside of McNabb & McNair and probably Burrow, if he stays upright, all of those QB's on that post were a bunch of meaty okre ham & eggers.

Ryan and Bledsoe are better than good. 

Schefter reported yesterday that Bieniemy is staying in KC. So another off-season of interviewing with virtually every team and then staying put in KC.

While that's surprising, I could see teams interviewing him and deciding it's Reid and Mahomes that make that offense go.

Or maybe OC is his ceiling.  It's not necessarily the same skillset for success at HC.

I'm not surprised at this. From what I've heard he's not a strong candidate. Recent stuff includes how he botched the KC/Bengals game and there was fighting between him and Mahomes.

Also interesting is that KC signed Bienemy to a 1 year deal while bring back Matt Nagy, who Bienemy replaced as OC, as a senior assistant/QB coach. Maybe Nagy slides back into his old role in a year?

Lol

Will be interesting, going forward, if some of these networks can pry head coaches or players into early retirement to be analysts. Sean McVay was offered $20m/year to be an analyst. He used that to leverage a contract extension. The Hoodie has been the highest paid coach at $12.5m/yr. Hmmmm....less stress, more family time and more money....

Saw this with other QB’s too

That seems really high.  Just a few years ago, Romo got $180M over 10 years, but many consider that an anomaly.  Collinsworth and Aikman are looking for new deals, but currently make about $9-$10M per year.

Those are all established, proven guys.  Can't imagine McVay getting $20M out of the gate.
